Week 16 -- Happy Hens

Posted on September 27th, 2021 by Kristine Hammel

Earlier this summer, my brother gave us an old trailer base and helped us build a mobile hen house. Since July, the girls have been enjoying their days on pasture. About once per week, we use the tractor to move their house to fresh pasture. Our flock includes a colourful mix of breeds, including Rhode Island Reds, Plymouth Barred Rocks, Rhode Bars, Azure Blue and more. You'll notice the diversity in the colour of the eggshells.
